    Yes!! Next summer will be wonderful for both of us! My family caught me running up the stairs last week( I forgot I had a zoom meeting for work:dubious: ) and were like "woah mom, go!". without thinking I sprinted up the steps!

Another woman mentioned to me she was having a hard time with turning 50 next year (I turn 50 next year also) and I thought to myself I'm excited to turn 50! For the first time in a long time I am hopeful for the coming years. My hips have made me feel old...

    THR New Here- THR 8/22/22- Muscle Atrophy (maybe)

    Hi SweetV! I had my right hip done on July 13 so almost 10 weeks in. I had a good cry this weekend that I'm "not back to normal".
